then get a booster.

although i used to have my aerial go into the vcr, then out of the vcr into the set top box, then out of the set top box to the tv with both the vcr and set top box hooked into the tv via rca leads. now i have it the set top box gets the signal first and vcr second and the vcr also gets the rca leads from the set top box so i can tape digiat channels.

well how else am i supposed to tape stuff until i get a ps3 and playtv? i'm not enough of a nerd to have a media centre, and i honestly don't watch that much tv.

but i do have a SNES and sega megadrive, plus a N64, xbox and ps2. most of the consoles i only have about 5 games for except for the ps2, which i have about 20

Sometimes it cuts the ass off the show which sucks. You'd think digital channels would send a digital 'marker' at the start and finish of a program.

If they do that it would be easier to record and fast forward the ads, they don't want that, they want you to sit there and watch the Ads so they make it harder to record it.

you can set it to start a few minutes early and finish a few minutes late, we do this and it always gets the whole show

No not the start and finish of the program segments. The start and finish of the whole program.

So it records from the very beginning to the very end. Not just the bits of the actual show.

"you can set it to start a few minutes early and finish a few minutes late, we do this and it always gets the whole show"

Where's this setting? In the options?

when you see the menu where you click to record there are two lines down the bottom you scroll to, one adds up to 10 minutes to the start and the other adds up to 10 minutes to the end.

yeah when it asks to 'set recording' just go down and i think the defauls says 'start on time' and below that 'finish on time' you just press up or down on the sticks the set the time then go back up and set recording.

After this is done you can go back into the gude view and you will see your recording set in red and little orange bits overlapping into the shows on either side indicating that your recording will capture a little part of those shows

you can search the next 7 days and it will record anything matching that description

Really, i know you can search but then you have to go through the process of recording each of them one at a time.

Its also not exactly what im talkinf about, when you record something now you get an option to record once, daily or weekly, the option i want is the same thing but for the whole series untill i tell it not to anymore.

could you repeat that please, could all i heard was "i'm a whiney little bitch" bahahaha

sorry mate, couldn't resist it.

couldn't you just simply set it to record weekly then just turn that off once the show has ended. generally they don't move shows around too much.

do u have to keep the ps3 running while it records - like say u wana record something while ur at work, do u just set up the epg and then leave the ps3 running or can u set it and then turn it off?

im thinking about getting one

You turn it off, it will start and record the program then turn its self off, even while it is recording you can turn it off, it will get to a certain point and you leave it there once recording is finished it will turn its self off.

      Welcome.  Glad to hear that you have gained some knowledge that has helped you. I believe the only fix for the power steer belt is an electric conversion with a Holden astra pump. If you get a chance, post pics of your car, please. 🙂

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
